THE deplorable accident which

THE deplorable accident which
happened at the west end OF the East
Los Angeles bridge. last evening
teac hes a significant lesson. The
city authorities ought to enforce pre-
caut ions such as are enforced in East
ern and European cities to prevent
mishaps of this character. Where
travelled thoroughfares and railroads
intersect each other bars are let down
when trains are moving on the track,
and raised when the track is clear.
Had this simple safeguard been pro-
vided a valuable life would have
been saved yesterday. But the whole
space between the junction of Upper
Main and Alameda streets and
the East Los Angeles bridge is now
i'm minent of sudden death to persons
in vehicles. Either the entire dis
tance should be spanned by an ele-
vated wagon road or Chavez street
should be so improved as to give the
people another easy thoroughfare to
East Los Angeles. If this street were
made practicable and the Buena
Vista street bridge finished there
would be no excuse for driving to
East Los Angeles through the netway
of rails on San Fernando street. The
only wonder is that so few serious ac-
cidents have been recorded in this
dangerous locality.

A SERIOUS and painful defect in the
Act of Congress regulating the con-
test for membership by the House OF
Representative is the absence of
power to compel the attendance of
witnesses before the officer taking
dispositions in the matter. Section
ia of the Act provides for the issu-
ance and service OF a subpoena, with
no resort to an attachment in case
the witness refuses to attend. To be
sure, section 116 declares that the
non-attending witness "shall forfeit
the sum OF $40, to be recovered by
the party at whose instance the SUBJ
pGna was issued" and shall be
liable to a prosecution for misde-
meanor. But such remedy is simply
nugatory. We do not believe that
Lynch and Vandever have leisure
and disposition for such civil and
criminal remedy. 1t is fact that
more than one-third of the witnesses
subpenaed by Mr.. Lynch refused tc
attend, and the presumption is that
Mr.. Vandever will encounter the
same fate, and thus it may happen
that the certified member or his
may lose his case by the
refusal of witnesses to obey subp9-

The interviews we give elsewhere
with our leading business men upon
the operation Of the new schedule of
overland freight rates, the result Of
the passage Of the Interstate Com
merce law, will open the eyes OF our
people to the danger which confronts
ms. If the fourth section Of that law
Is to remain in force, a;d the rates
made by the railroads in pursuance
Of it are to be maintained. then very
serious and disastrous results are to
follow. Business houses with large
capitals may bs able to pull success
iully through; bit many small houses

,ill have to 90 to the wall. The

will have to 60 to the wall. The
East is going to lose very large por-
ton OF it's present business with tins
coast if the enormous freight rates
now in force are to continue; and
Europe will receive the trade which
Eastern manufacturers must lose.
The railroad rates are higher upon
many classes of goods than the tariff
of the United States on the same
articles and it will be found cheaper
to have foreign manufactures shipped
directly to San Pedro, and pay the
duties required by the Government,
than to order them at Eastern factor
les and pay the freight upon them to
this city. Let us give an illustration
OF how this thing will work
in line OF business with which
we are perfectly familiar. News
paper, such as we use, costs at
the mills in the Eastern States SEQ
6 cents per pound. Freight on the
same, at present schedule rates, is
1885 per hundred pounds. That
brings the cost, laid down in Los
Angeles, up to $S.S5@$9.35 per hun
dred pounds. We received propo-
sition from responsible house yes
terday, to deliver us paper here from
Germany, to be brought here by sea,
at So per one hundred pounds. In
this connection our correspondent
writes that "Isthmus rates have also
advanced so that nothing can be
saved that way, considering the bad
condition paper usually arrives in
from Panama" This leaves the
Cape Horn route alone available, and
as paper is much cheaper in Germany
than in the United States, it is prob
able we will find ourselves con-
strained, through the operation OF
the Interstate Commerce law, 10
oatronize foreign instead of home
mills. Now, there are many other
lines of goods that are exactly in the
same category as paper, as regards
to ch eapness of importing them from
foreign countries rather than from
the East. Therefore the effect will
he that our custom will fall away
from Eastern manufactures and go
to foreign markets. Wonderful
sngacity in legislation that can bring
about so unpatriotic aresult! But as
other portions of the country
have received at least temporary re-
lief from the section OF the law which
| is held sponsor for this depiorable
state of affairs, this coast is entitled
to and should receive the same relief.
The railroads doing our overland bus
mess ought, of their own volition, to
have petittoned for the suspension in
their favor of the fourth section be-
fore this. They have not done so,
and nobody can understand why. 1t
is now the duty OF our people to use
every means in their power to urge
the railroads to apply for this suspen-
sion. Let us have that relief at once,
and we shall then be enabled to pre-
pare for the worst, if the worst must
